[QUOTE="FireproofD3:25, post: 1421163, member: 10614"] Have never really experienced this problem before until last week at the range, but while practicing slide-lock reloads on my M&P9L the baseplates on my magazines are flying off dumping my magazine spring, follower and ammo on the ground. First time it happened I assumed that it was a fluke and took note of the magazine, but by the third time and it happening on another mag I figured it's either me or some bad magazines. Practiced in my house several time doing mag changes (with empty mags of course) and it continues to do it on 4 different magazines. I've gotten in the habit of inserting the magazine with enough force to throw the slide forward, chambering a round without hitting the slide release (not sure if this is an intentional feature of the M&P series or not). The baseplates on all of them seem very solid and well attached when I try to removed them without depressing the button, so the only thing I can come up with is I'm putting to much forward pressure on the baseplate as I'm slamming it in to the mag well. I'm trying real hard right now to change my angle of force as I push the magazine straight up instead of the before mentioned forward motion. Because honestly the last thing I want happening at an IDPA match is dumping live ammo all over the ground. :hithead::loser: Just curious if anyone else has had this problem or any other suggestions to correct it??
